The Making of Memento

James Mottram
Faber & Faber

Remember Sammy Jankis
Mottram's book offers a fascinating account of how Memento came into being, the trials its creators went through to get it distributed, and offers several interpretations of the film's meaning. It's also filled with interesting vignettes from movie set. The book roughly parallels the movie in that its chapters work backwards toward the source material, Nolan's brother's shortstory Memento Mori. ...
Memento: Solace for Grieving
Diane Pub Co
, 1995
This beautiful little book will make a thoughtful gift for anyone in mourning. Tasteful, consoling selections of classic poetry and prose show how great writers across the centuries--PLato, Shakespeare, Emily Dickinson, and Carl Jung, among others--have grappled with death and grief. Elegantly illustrated with 19th-century engravings.

Superb novel, ahead of its time
A wonderful novel about a subject taboo in the 1950's in London... growing old. One of the very few books of its time to talk about those in their 70's and 80's without being patronizing or treating them as stereotypes. BBC Television produced a wonderful version filled with stars who had not held starring roles in decades (except Maggie Smith). Wonderful character studies and a clever ...

The screenwriting book for the rest of us
Me and You and Memento and Fargo does more to aid and abet the art of screenwriting than almost the entire output of the writing gurus from Syd Field (orig. pub. 1979) to date. On the way, it also provides a film-fest full of insights into 12 important independent movies (Stranger Than Paradise, Safe, Fargo, Trust, Gas Food Lodging, Me and You and Everyone We Know, Reservoir Dogs, Elephant, ...

I Loved Every Word. The Best Screenplay I Have Ever Read!
I have been saying this for a few months: "Memento" is my favorite movie. As soon as I found out that you could buy the screenplay for the movie, I knew that I had to have it. Normally, I wouldn't care to see the screenplay for many movies, but this was a very big exception. I loved the movie so much that I wanted to see how it looked on paper. A little warning: The script is NOT word for ...

Memento Mori: Churches and Churches of England
Simon Marsden
English Heritage
, 2008
Simple stone gravestones, richly carved table tombs and glowing stained glass memorial windows are part of the rich heritage to be found in England's churches and churchyards. They all mark the irrevocable certainty of death and seem to proclaim 'Memento Mori' - 'Remember you are mortal'. The quintessence of the English churchyard and its memorials has been beautifully captured by Simon Marsden who presents the results of his recent tour of the ...

North Mountain Mementos
Henry W. Shoemaker
Wennawoods Publishing
, 2007
Our early Pennsylvania history is a collection of both oral traditions, passed down through the generations, and the written word recorded by early settlers, as they became literate and capable writers. Like it or not, most of what historians call factual history had its basis in some form of oral traditions that was passed down through family histories. Thus it behooves us as readers of early history to take the time to read and examine the ...
